Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 293 Different Opinions

Inside the magnificent hall, a purplish-black orb of light and a blue-gold orb of light stood in opposition, their powerful energies filling the entire hall as they collided and rubbed against each other.

The bursting light seemed to carry the essence of life and death, as if even space itself was about to tremble and be destroyed.

This powerful fluctuation naturally attracted the attention of all the titled Douluo, but the emanating pressure prevented them from advancing even an inch, and they couldn't even enter the Papal Palace.

Even Hu Liena, who possessed the Soul Imprint Throne, was unable to enter the palace at this moment. The Soul Imprint Throne of Wisdom and Spirit dimmed, as if it were afraid of the energy within.

What happened inside?

Why is there such a powerful pressure?

"Are the Holy Son and His Holiness the Pope researching some powerful self-created soul skill?"

"It might be a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. I felt the intertwining of life and death attributes... That's definitely a power beyond mortal imagination!"

"Teacher, Tang San, what exactly are you researching?"

Qian Daoliu, who was located at the top of Wuhun Mountain, suddenly opened his eyes, looked down, and sensed the cycle of life and death. His face turned ashen.

Qian Daoliu had also studied the Martial Soul Fusion Technique. The harmonious fusion of soul power he was seeing was not a powerful Martial Soul transforming other types of soul power, but a deeper fusion, a fusion as seamless as water and milk.

This means one thing: Bibi Dong betrayed Qian Xunji!

Although Qian Xunji forcibly took her body back then, no matter what, Bibi Dong is still his daughter-in-law. How could she be so... unfaithful to her husband!

Tang San was recognized by these worshippers as a holy son, and was also the husband prepared for Qian Renxue in the event that she could not complete the divine test. He was the seed for the Qian family to produce an even more outstanding offspring!

But now, surprisingly—

absurd!

Unreasonable!

Qian Daoliu's expression shifted between light and dark as his soul power surged, but he eventually calmed down.

Firstly, their Angel lineage had wronged Bibi Dong. At the time, they were in the Spirit Hall and did not think of stopping Qian Xunji from doing so, so they felt guilty.

Secondly, Bibi Dong is, after all, Qian Renxue's mother, and she cannot leave too many flaws in Xue'er's heart; she must live.

Thirdly, this might have been an accident, not something Bibi Dong truly intended to do. It's highly likely that it was their first time fusing soul power, causing them to act impulsively...

However, the most important point is that the area covered by the energy below is smaller than that of the previous silvery-white energy, but its quality is higher and its origin is more abundant, already extremely close to the level of 100.

If he were to interrupt rashly, the energy would erupt, and the entire Spirit City, including himself, would be destroyed in an instant... For Xue'er's future, everything could be sacrificed, but he could not sacrifice himself. The final inheritance of the angels required the sacrifice of him, a devout follower of the angel god, to truly be opened!

"Great Elder, what kind of trouble has arisen down there now?" Golden Crocodile Douluo couldn't discern the true nature of the situation. He only felt that the energy transmitted from the mountainside was even more powerful, and that familiar fluctuation caused his body to tremble instinctively. He recalled the memory of being suppressed by Tang San and Bibi Dong with a single punch, almost dying without a burial place.

"It's nothing, Bibi Dong and Tang San are just practicing their self-created soul skills." Qian Daoliu suddenly looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo and felt that they should add another layer of insurance and find a way to help Golden Crocodile Douluo break through to level 99 as well.

In this way, even if Bibi Dong were to cause trouble for him in the future, resulting in an accident that prevents Qian Renxue from undertaking the final ninth trial... Jin E could serve as his substitute and initiate the final trial, after all, Jin E Douluo was also a devout follower of the Angel God...

···

Within Bibi Dong's spiritual sea, Electrox saw the remnant soul of the Rakshasa God and sneered, "The gods of the divine realm are truly shameless, daring to scheme against even their own successors."

"A last resort." The remnant soul of Rakshasa sized up Ilex, noticing his aura that seemed out of place in this world, and said, "Does the God Realm govern visitors from other worlds? Judging from your appearance, achieving the position of Death God is nothing more than a piece of cake for you. Why did you give up?"

"In my world, becoming a god means being one with the world," Electrox said.

"Divine bodies and souls becoming elemental?" The remnant soul of Rakshasa seemed to have thought of something and said in a low voice, "It seems that the rules of your world are very powerful. Using gods as sustenance, the world continues to grow, and in the end, it may even become a divine star that surpasses the divine realm and becomes a materialized divine star."

"Putting all that aside for now, what exactly is your purpose?" Electrox asked.

"Let life and death intertwine to help my successor condense the divine position of death," the remnant soul of Rakshasa said, "but she cannot accomplish this alone; she can only rely on external forces."

The position of the God of Death does not exist in the God Realm; it can only be created by Bibi Dong herself. However, given Bibi Dong's talent, she doesn't have the opportunity to achieve it, so she has to find a way herself.

Meanwhile, the remnant soul of Rakshasa also hoped that Bibi Dong would become stronger, so that she could regain face from Shura in the future, and even kill Shura God once, so that he could also experience what it was like to be a remnant soul.

"Condense the position of the God of Death? Heh, do you even know how to do that? It's not something you can achieve simply by having more death-attribute energy." Electrox sneered, his divine soul trembling as he dispersed the divine sense that Rakshasa's divine soul was trying to entangle him. He chuckled coldly, "And don't even think about taking anything from me. If you were in your prime, I might not be a match for you, but a mere remnant soul thinks it's a bit too far-fetched to try and seize the aura and laws of the God of Death from me?"

"As expected of a powerful being from another world, truly impressive... How about we make a deal?" The remnant soul of Rakshasa, sensing its impending dissipation, marveled at Ilex's strangeness and offered its own request: "You help Bibi Dong condense the Seed of Death, and I'll teach you how to use the power of faith, how about it?"

"The power of faith?" Electrox feigned disdain. "In my world, where I became a god, I have no need for such a thing."

"Don't look down on it. Faith is the belief of all living beings, a manifestation of spiritual power, possessing all sorts of immense power. Even the gods in the divine realm rarely utilize it. But based on my initial observations and speculations about those god-kings, they themselves are manifestations of spiritual power." The remnant soul of Rakshasa shared some of his understanding of the power of faith.

"You've even seen the God King?" Electrox was pretty much certain that the remnant soul of the Rakshasa before him hadn't fallen from the divine realm, but rather was something his original body had left behind in the mortal world before ascending to the divine realm.

But as far as he knew, it was just a wisp of a soul, so it couldn't possibly connect to the main body, right?

"I saw her in person, but she has already been destroyed by the God of Asura. The blame lies with me for affecting the place of inheritance he left in this Douluo world." The remnant soul of Rakshasa was filled with resentment, and his remnant soul was scattered. It took a while for him to calm down before he slowly said, "It's always a bit exciting to bring up old matters. Getting back to the main point, before I perished, I did some research on the power of faith and transferred some memories to this wisp of my remnant soul, which is why I have some related memories."

"Of the five great god-kings—Life, Destruction, Asura, Good, and Evil—which two do you find most abrupt?"

Electrolux frowned and said, "I have never seen them in person, but just from their names, good and evil are rather special. Life and destruction are two laws, while Asura should be in charge of killing intent. As for good and evil, they seem to be concepts in the true sense."

"That's right, good and evil are the most striking. These two are also the supreme god-kings of the divine realm, in charge of good and evil thoughts."

The remnant soul of Rakshasa sighed, "As long as people in the world are not heartless and devoid of humanity, the fluctuations emanating from their thoughts can be categorized into the concepts of 'goodness' and 'evil.' Therefore, even if the two of them did not leave behind a place of inheritance in the mortal realm, and even if the world is unaware of their existence, it is still possible to instinctively provide them with the power of faith."

"The essence of the power of faith is the power of the mind, and the thoughts that intelligent beings generate, whether they do good or evil, will enhance the power of those two."

"Even if the two of them did not deliberately collect these thoughts, most of them would dissipate the moment they were generated, which would make their strength superior to the other three God-Kings."

Now, Electrox was certain of one thing: just as he had previously guessed, the gods of the divine realm, like Soul Masters, accumulated the power of faith in quantity rather than quality, and their methods of utilization were extremely primitive.

But is the essence of the power of faith simply the power of the mind?

Faith comes from the heart...

Seeing Electrolux deep in thought, Rakshasa continued in his divine sense, "My remaining soul is also about to dissipate. Could you do me a favor? Consider it helping your daughter-in-law?"

Electrolux: "???"

"Bibi Dong, as my successor, is like my daughter, while you reside in Tang San's spiritual sea, isn't Tang San like your son?" said the remnant soul of Rakshasa.

"If you put it that way, it's true." Electrolux smiled, taking advantage of Tang San, and then asked, "What if this woman gets angry afterwards?"

"Don't worry, Bibi Dong already has feelings for Tang San. In addition, with the fusion of their soul power and the blending of their bodies, she will instinctively lean towards him. There won't be any major problems." The voice of the remnant soul of Rakshasa grew softer and softer, and its figure became more and more illusory. "In the future, she will definitely become an ally for Tang San."

"Aren't you afraid we'll take advantage of you and run away?" Electrox pursed his lips, thinking that Rakshasa's remnant soul was being a bit too far-fetched. Neither he nor Tang San were entirely good people.

"I can see that you will not submit to the Divine Realm Committee." The remnant soul of Rakshasa felt that this alone was enough.

"That's incredibly insightful!"

Electrolux had to admit that those who could condense a godhood on their own were all truly capable and had a clear understanding of human nature.

The remnant soul of Rakshasa was surprised that a demigod-level powerhouse would actually swear...
